Last month we posted a Macromedia contingency design snapshot on Design Not Found. Today Erik Larson, Sr. Product Manager for Macromedia Contribute, detailed the changes they implemented to fix the problems we reported.
Gotta love a company that recognizes their mistakes, thanks you for bringing them to their attention, fixes the mistakes, and then publicly posts the changes. Nice job Macromedia.

So, are you going to fix the typo that's been brought to your attention twice? ;o)

What typo? (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)... All fixed.
Don't praise us, praise Macromedia for making the changes/improvements. They are the real winners.
Great! Now if they would just make it so you can navigate and use their web site in Opera! I went to check out their site after reading this article, and I could only see the bottom half of their web site. The part with no navigation at all. I thought I was at the wrong web site for a while... So I checked the url to make sure I hadn't type it wrong... but it was ok... So then I looked at the site in IE and it actually worked.
It's a shame a company that makes products that make web sites doesn't even make their own site viewable in all the browsers...
But hey, as long as you can tell your friend about a site they won't be able to navigate, way to go Macromedia!

Isn't their site mostly Flash and, thereby, independent from most browser differences? And not to defend them, but what percentage of visitors do you think they get using Opera? They probably focus 100% of their energy on 98% of the browsers hitting their site (IE + Netscape).
Take a look at the site in opera... the flash doesn't even show up. I'm guessing without looking at their code that they are using a layer or div or something to put that top nav on there, and it's not showing up at all in opera. yeah not many people use opera... but you'd think a multi-million dollar corporation would have the resources to make their site work in a couple more browsers.
If you download the player, install and point it to the opera plugin directory it will then work.
And not to defend them, but what percentage of visitors do you think they get using Opera?
Who cares? Information is universal and acessible.
good job... way to go macromedia
I will look into this matter and let you know. I think you may be right.
